"There was no rain for a year, so some of the Muslims went to the Prophet ﷺ one Friday and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, there has been no rain; the land has become bare and our wealth has been destroyed.' He raised his hands, and we did not see any cloud in the sky. He stretched forth his hands until I could see the whiteness of his armpits, praying to Allah (SWT) for rain. When we finished praying Jumu'ah, even a young man whose house nearby was worried about how he would get home. That lasted for a week, then on the following Friday they said: 'O Messenger of Allah, houses have been destroyed and all travel has been ceased.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled at how quickly the sons of Adam become weary, and he said with his hands raised: 'O Allah, around us and not on us,' and it dispersed from Al-Madinah."  

قُحِطَ الْمَطَرُ عَامًا فَقَامَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَحَطَ الْمَطَرُ وَأَجْدَبَتِ الأَرْضُ وَهَلَكَ الْمَالُ قَالَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَمَا نَرَى فِي السَّمَاءِ سَحَابَةً فَمَدَّ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ بَيَاضَ إِبْطَيْهِ يَسْتَسْقِي اللَّهَ ﷻ قَالَ فَمَا صَلَّيْنَا الْجُمُعَةَ حَتَّى أَهَمَّ الشَّابَّ الْقَرِيبَ الدَّارِ الرُّجُوعُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَدَامَتْ جُمُعَةٌ فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ تَهَدَّمَتِ الْبُيُوتُ وَاحْتَبَسَ الرُّكْبَانُ قَالَ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِسُرْعَةِ مَلاَلَةِ ابْنِ آدَمَ وَقَالَ بِيَدَيْهِ اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلاَ عَلَيْنَا فَتَكَشَّطَتْ عَنِ الْمَدِينَةِ

عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ قَالَسُئِلَ أَنَسٌ هَلْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ؟ فَقَالَ قِيلَ لَهُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَحَطَ الْمَطَرُ وَأَجْدَبَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَهَلَكَ الْمَالُ قَالَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ بَيَاضَ إِبْطَيْهِ فَاسْتَسْقَى وَلَقَدْ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَمَا يُرَى فِي السَّمَاءِ سَحَابَةً فَمَا قَضَيْنَا الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى إِنَّ قَرِيبَ الدَّارِ الشَّابَّ لَيُهِمُّهُ الرُّجُوعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَهَدَّمَتِ الْبُيُوتُ وَاحْتُبِسَ الرُّكْبَانُ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ سُرْعَةِ مَلَالَةِ ابْنِ آدَمَ وَقَالَ اللهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلَا عَلَيْنَا فَتَكَشَّطَتْ عَنِ الْمَدِينَةِ
